The Cardinals will introduce Goldschmidt at a news conference Friday in St. Louis.

The St. Louis Cardinals have acquired first baseman Paul Goldschmidt from the Arizona Diamondbacks, the team announced Wednesday. He won the NL Silver Slugger Award in 2013, 2015, 2017 and 2018, and he has three Gold Gloves (2013, 2015, 2017) on his shelf. He's set to make $14.5 million next season before hitting free agency in 2020, when he'll be in line for another lucrative deal stretching into his 30s.

First baby born from deceased organ donor's womb
Some who were born without a uterus, other had unexplained malformations, of sustained damaged during childbirth or infection. A new technique might broaden the pool of available uterus donors and give more women the option to have a baby.

And none of the players traded away - a package headlined by pitcher Luke Weaver - were essential to the Cards going into the 2019 season. He has spent the last eight seasons with the D-Backs after making his debut in August of 2011. Greinke finished last season with a 15-11 record in 33 starts with a 3.21 ERA.

Although the Diamondbacks are entering rebuilding mode, it's unlikely they'll allow Goldschmidt, 31, to leave for the Cardinals, Astros or any other team for less than market value.
